Nice post, but what's with all the "Oblibbion" and "Dragonnnnnn!!!111" stuff ?

It makes you sound like one of those miserable nerds from that rpg site nobody cares about. Relax. It's just a video game.

I can barely sleep.

I was very excited when I first heard about the Skyrim--but then I remembered my disappointment with Oblivion and the closed cities therefore no levitation which I loved about MW. :confused:

Very exited. Most people are just aftraid that the game might not feel like a TES game.

I pooped a little when i saw skyrims announcement

I'm very excited for this game, It's all looking to be an amazing experience, November needs to hurry up.

I'd be lying if I said I wasn't worried.
There's a lot of bad rumours going around that I hope to god Tod will clear up in the interview.

At this point I'm highly doubting my day one purchase.



I'm sure I will still buy it, but at this point it's looking to me like I'll be waiting till it's in the bargain bin.

I cant wait :bonk: Im not to worried, game looks great! Really looking forward to seeing some gameplay vids. :bonk:

I`ve never stopped being excited by it! I`m also looking at it as a completely new type of TES game and not getting bogged down by the whole "it`s not morrowind" type mindset, so yeah i`ll enjoy it very much when it comes out. I`ve bought every single one in the past from Arena onwards, so not stopping now.

Maybe we should send a bottle of wine to gstaff stat ?

I just think a lot of people need to punched hard in the face, and slapped with a TES game disk. The personality of a lot of people in this forum is like they hate everyone, every idea, and every announcement.

But what can you expect, you get lots of different people in a forum. Sometimes they're incredibly ignorant.

Well said. I hope many people read this and come to realise Skyrim will be the best epic ever. Too much critisism kinda ruins it for me, so stay positive and don't ruin this for me.

Yeah, I'm excited. I'm able to accept that games don't stay the same and that evolution and innovation are good things.

EDIT: This quote from the article linked earlier pretty much sums up my views.

Worry is like a rocking chair: it won't get you anywhere, but it gives you something to do.

I'm "hopeful", because I'm still a dedicated frequent MW player (modded to the gills), and found myself let down, after the initial great first impression, by all that was taken away in OB. As a "sandbox" combat game with RPG trimmings, it was excellent; as an actual RPG, it was definitely a disappointment. From much of what's been released about Skyrim (which admittedly isn't much), it looks to continue the trend. I may be mistaken, and sincerely hope that I am, but I'm going to hold off on buying it for at least a week or two after release, and a few of the posters I can rely on make their better-informed comments about it based on actual gameplay.

MW was a delicious cake with some relatively bland icing on top, and Oblivion was more like a relatively flavorless cake with sweet icing. I prefer to look past the icing at the cake, whereas other players will judge it solely by the icing. If you like icing, that's one thing; if you prefer cake, then it's another. I'm just hoping that this time Bethesda manages to make the best of both worlds, but not holding my breath for it; I've been disappointed before.

i am really excited i loved Oblivion so much.
that sound like morrowind fans

I am very excited.

Damn, Skyrim will rock as hell.

Overall I am happy. Still 9 moths of a slow trickle of info to come so who knows if I'll be happy-excited at launch.

I'm more excited about this game, than I've ever been excited for a game ever. :tongue:

Glucose is basing his opinion of the game solely off of Morrowind, like many others. I don't really care what he has to say, because I know he will never be satisfied no matter what type of game Skyrim is. It's a lost cause.

Why is it that people feel the need to compare these games to eachother? Okay, fine. I loved Morrowind, I didn't really like Oblivion much in comparison.
That's my own subjective opinion and I honestly don't think Skyrim can ever live up to it due to the nostalgia and my own personal taste. But why does this matter? How does it affect you? It doesn't, so what's the problem?

I think the real question is, why do people care so much what others like or don't like? If you get angry at me because I didn't like Oblivion, there is something wrong with you, that is not rational behaviour.

I'm pretty damn excited. Just thinking about Skyrim makes my [censored] hard. It's going to be an awesome game.

Yeah, and how people insult other games because they didn't live up to their expectations of the older game.

I can't wait for this game to come out

So we're not allowed to be worried about an upcoming game just because the game before it was nothing compared to the game before that game in our opinions?

The board sure has gone anti-opinion lately... http://images2.memegenerator.net/ImageMacro/4002441/Stop-liking-what-I-dont-like.jpg?imageSize=Large&generatorName=STOP-LIKING-WHAT-I-DONT-LIKE

And that applies for both sides. Vice versa as well.



Anyways, after hearing today's podcast and about spell making (or crafting rather) still being in the works, I'm a little relieved. I'm still worried though.

I just like you and everyone else was waiting for the announcement of Skyrim. It just took too long for the announcement so it's like meh, great, but no big deal. Actually I think it's a great idea. They could have announced it last year and the wait would be over 2 years and then be really hyped up with anticipation. Also Oblivion was a big let down at first. Yes I love the game now, but so disapointed with the lack of everything. Seems like Skyrim will be the same, less things, but I will love this game as well.

So waiting for so long for an announcement, and being so disapointed with Oblivion, I am a bit Cynical. While I am excited for Skyrim, I am dreading the bugs. New Vegas, Fallout, Oblivion, Morrowind, Daggerfall, all plagued with bugs apon release. So I guess I am just not trying to get my disapointed apon release that is all.

But don't get me wrong, 11/11/11 can't come soon enough.
